Package: debian-policy
Severity: wishlist
Hi.
It would be useful to have a copy of the HTML version of
upgrading-checklist somewhere on the web. This could, for example, be
linked from the PTS when some package's Standards-Version has to be
upgraded.
In #485085 the problem of the links from upgrading-checklist to the
policy has been discussed, but not solved. I've come up with a pair of
hacks that should do the trick (although they don't qualify as
"solution" at all). I'm attaching them in case you're interested.
You have to do something like that:
$ ./build_section_mapping.sh <
/usr/share/doc/debian-policy/policy-1.html > sect_map
$ ./patch_checklist.py <
/usr/share/doc/debian-policy/upgrading-checklist-1.html >
upgrading-checklist-1-links.html
You'll probably want also want to change paths in patch_checklist.py.
Also, to usefully link upgrading-checklist from other services, it would
be helpful to have section anchors named with the relevant policy
version number instead of section number (otherwise some other hack like
build_section_mappings.sh should be used).
Thanks, Giovanni.

This was made available on the web some time ago, and the remaining work
of making the upgrading checklist an appendix of Policy was done by
Guillem as part of the DocBook conversion.
